Company says that incident was controlled and caused no casualties or damage to the environment, but does not reveal the volume of the leak
A hole in a pipe P-51 platform in the Campos Basin, caused a leak of natural gas on site, Petrobras said today. At the time of the incident, production was interrupted due to a scheduled maintenance shutdown, which began at midnight of last Thursday, the 1st. The state says there were no environmental damage, but does not report the volume of the leak.
According to the company, the problem has occurred in a line along which the gas proceeds to the burner during the depressurization of the process unit of the platform.
A team from Petrobras identified the hole near the support line and repair should be done before the return to production, scheduled to take place in four days. The company also said that there were no casualties and that the facilities were not damaged.
